Whilst the suppression orders are apparently keeping things quiet, it seems Oliver has “Suddenly” lost favour with the Victorian Racing Authorities…Now why would they dump him as the “Face” of the Melbourne Cup Carnival and other events? Interesting indeed…

The rumour mill went into overdrive at Sandown races today as news spread about the reason behind Oliver not riding his three mounts today and as to why he is being investigated by the Victorian Police.

CHAMPION hoop Damien Oliver, who is embroiled in a police investigation, has forgone his rides at today's Sandown meeting.

CHAMPION hoop Damien Oliver, who is embroiled in a police investigation, has forgone his rides at today’s Sandown meeting.

Oliver’s manager, Mark Van Triet, contacted Racing Victoria Limited stewards to inform them his client would not be fulfilling any of his three rides.

Bailey declined to elaborate on the reason given by Oliver.

He said Oliver would not be required to provide a medical certificate before he next rode.

Oliver is scheduled to ride at Friday night’s Group 1 meeting at Moonee Valley.

The 38-year-old is helping police with their inquiries into a criminal investigation and agreed to meet detectives on Monday.

He has not been charged with an offence but the probe could interfere with his preparations for this year’s Spring Racing Carnival.

Geelong Supt Peter O’Neill said Oliver had spoken to police and investigations were continuing.
